How it works
The formula.
Each payment = shares × the dividend per share for a year ÷ the payments a year; a yield becomes a dividend as price × yield. With reinvesting on, each payment buys more shares at the same price, so the next payment is larger. Example: 100 shares at 50 with a 4% yield pay 200 a year, 50 a quarter; reinvested for a year, they become 104.06 shares paying 208.12 a year. The price and the dividend stay where you put them, before taxes and fees; real ones change.
A calculator works out one trade or one list. Stocka’s trade journal keeps the real numbers for you: every buy and sell with its fees, your average cost, and your realised and unrealised P&L, on iPhone, iPad and Mac. The journal is free.
